Not our leaders (recall Tim Geithner and Charlie Rangel and many, many others hiding taxable assets) and most certainly not their corporate cronies (Goldman Sachs paid <1% in 2008 taxes, or USD 14 "million" on profits of USD 2.3 "billion").

Rather, it's the working poor--

--10s of 1000s in fees and lost productivity to squeeze another $1400 from a lady with two kids who earns $10/hr. Really have their priorities straight, no?
